as far as I know, it will fit... however, do you want it to fit? not really.

The T5 will blow up way to quicky. It was not designed to deal with much more than 250hp, if I remember correctly. maybe 300.

if you really want a better gearbox, Richmond makes a couple of great boxes!

except they are $$$
